That's what happens when fans take over rather than a professionally managed club ;-)

Unfortunately in my experience nobody cares about travelling supporters least of all the destination club.

Some things don't add up here !
We got there at 12 pm and on approaching the car park we were asked if we had tickets (which we had) the officials said they could let another 200 Rovers fans pay on the
door. Looking at how many PLYMOUTH were in the away end in the ist game of the season just over 900 this should have meant our official away following should have
been a similar figure !
There were loads more than 800 in our section so I assume that loads got in by either using tickets which were not taken by the turnstile operators and reused and the
Police advise to get as many Gasheads into the ground as possible

Pretty sure Rovers tweeted saying they asked Wimbledon to make it all ticket but the request was denied.
Rovers said you could pay on the day and guess what?? You could! As you would expect though tickets were limited!!
Nothing more Rovers can do about it, but anything to have a pop at the club!

It's Bristol Rovers, what do you expect? The club will blame Wimbledon, and yes ultimately it's their fault. However if our club did some work it would have never of got to this situation again. No doubt it will get swept under the carpet again! SACK THE BOARD innit? |

How is it Rovers fault. If you know your going buy a ticket. Simple. You couldn't buy a ticket until you got to the ground. That was the problem. There should not have been tickets available on the day. It should have been all ticket. Simples. Yes you could. We all had ours on the Monday before |

Surprise surprise, gasincider is the only person who is laying the blame of Wimbledon's incompetence at the foot of Rovers board.
I'll keep saying it. He obviously has an agenda with the board.
He starts malicious rumors, he starts threads about the amount of board members who don't go to games after a couple failed to attend a few, he said he would keep a record of attendees, he stopped soon after........ why gasincider? Why did you tell us you would keep a record, then stop? They obviously were going to the games so you would have looked a bit stupid eh?

Rovers were given 900 tickets to sell and only sold 750 so they gave Wimbledon back 150 tickets and Wimbledon made the decision to alow fans to pay on the day. Unfortunately many more than the 150 extra turned up . To be fair I was in the ground and couldn't see f**k all anyway,

Anyone know anyone actually locked out? This is an important question that needs answering... I walked in a couple of minutes before kickoff (stuck on m25 dropping the misses off at Gatwick) and we got in with our two tickets that were bought weeks ago. The surrounding area was bizarrely empty of gasheads and so was the back of the away end apart from half a dozen stood there with the stewards with no idea what else to do. By the look on it the majority were turned away long before I got there. |

Common sense should say that with an away area that holds 800ish you should get a ticket when you can. It was on the radio yesterday that Rovers asked Wimbledon to make it all ticket and Wimbledon refused. Cant say I blame Rovers for this.I didn't go because I didn't get a ticket
